The Work of Art Moreno Jr.
Not every photographer can move seamlessly between a quiet portrait and the sweeping lines of a building, or find the same sense of intimacy in a landscape as they do in a face. It takes a certain kind of eye, one that has spent decades learning to slow down, pay attention, and find the extraordinary in the ordinary: rooted in El Paso, Texas, and felt everywhere. That is what you will find here.

About Art
For over forty years, Art Moreno Jr. has approached every frame as an act of intention, a quiet pursuit of the moment where light, expression, and place reveal something true. Published in Dwell, The City Spaces Magazine, Su Casa Magazine, and Apartment Therapy, his work spans intimate portraiture, architectural imagery, and the world beyond four walls. And through his humanitarian project, Dignity Has A Name, he has proven that the most powerful photographs are not simply taken, they are felt.
Recent Feature in The City Spaces Magazine
Art Moreno Jr. was most recently profiled alongside interior stylist Ladonna Apodaca in a feature for The City Spaces Magazine, spotlighting the collaborative process behind their architectural and interior photography work. The piece explores how the two prepare a space before a single photo is taken, from styling and lighting to composition and mood, and how that groundwork shapes images that go beyond documentation to capture the true character of a home.
The feature highlights Art's approach to each shoot as both photographer and storyteller, studying architecture, light, and perspective to create images that honor a designer's vision while revealing the emotional pull of a space. Together, Art and Ladonna's work has become a recurring collaboration for The City Spaces Magazine, celebrating the homes, designers, and personalities that define the region's interior and architectural landscape.
